一 (audio)

[fuzei]

[ There's a very quiet 'uwah' followed by a moment of silence. This is followed by another sound of admiration, but since this is audio, it's hard to say who the voice might belong to, much less what it is that is so intriguing. Thankfully, the person responsible is about to provide some commentary. ]

How curious… [ Here she starts to fade in and out a little. ] Such a thing… it makes one feel like a princess. [ When she gets closer, the sound of fabric rustling can be heard. ] Is this being spirited away? I have never experienced such a thing! [ Now she sounds like she's getting more excited. ] Is it that I am the heroine now? [ Now she seems to be moving away, because the sound is getting more muffled again. She can still be heard talking to herself every so often though, and further 'uwah!'s and 'aaa's can be heard intermittently. ] ... so beautiful...

Aa! Am I addressing someone? Please excuse my rudeness. My name is Japan. [ More rustling can be heard, because it's just like her to bow even when she can't be seen. ] May I ask... to whom I am speaking...?

[fionna_time]

Yup! A real big tree too! You can't miss it, its got a boat at the top and everything!

[fuzei]

A boat? [ Now she's looking even more intently.... ]

[fionna_time]

Yup! Right on the top branch! It's my lookout point!

[fuzei]

Is such a dwelling typical of this place?

[fionna_time]

For other people? Nah. Some have mansions and junk. This is just from my world.

[fuzei]

Mansions? Aa... apartments? [ She raises a finger to her lips and taps it against them. ] How interesting.

[fionna_time]

It's pretty cool! Just find the magic dirt!

[fuzei]

Magic dirt? [ She's echoing a lot, which she does when she gets Curious. ]

[fionna_time]

Yup! It helps make your stuff!

...yeah, I know its weird.

[fuzei]

It sounds very interesting, please do go on!

[fionna_time]

Um...there's a bunch of cool places to hang out, if you need help you can call the birds or the cats to help you out. But the coolest part of this place really is all the people, since we;re all from different worlds and all.

[fuzei]

All from different worlds? My apologies, can Fionna-san please explain such a thing? [ She might very well be taking notes furiously if she had a pen and paper. ]

[fionna_time]

I can try.

Um, the queen sort of has this ability to take us all from different places, different realities. Some of 'em are real similar to other places: like, most people are from some place called Earth, where I'm from the land of Ooo. Even the people from Earth, though, have different kinda realities that make their Earth different somehow.

[fuzei]

[ By the time she's done, Japan looks halfway between enthralled and a bit frightened. ]

A place like this... truly, it seems as though it is something from a storybook. It is possible I am dreaming....

[fionna_time]

[sheesh, what was with people thinking this was a dream already? No dream she ever had had full on conversations and junk!]

Uh no, you're definitely not, uh, Japan. I'm pretty sure I'm nobody's dream!

[fuzei]

[ She seems to consider that. ]

There simply must be an explanation.

[fionna_time]

But I just gave you one. Don't you believe me?

[fuzei]

It is not disbelief in Fionna-san's words! I apologize if it seemed to be so. Perhaps if I could learn more....

[fionna_time]

In that case, you might wanna actually wander around and find out yourself.

That's how I learned!

[fuzei]

[ Looking suddenly quite determined, Japan nods. ] I believe I shall do so. To see such things for myself, this is certainly a good idea, is it not?

[fionna_time]

Sure! And if you need someone to go with you, I'll help you out!

[fuzei]

Truly? [ Again, she's kind of leaning into the image, seeming a bit... well, intense about her interest. ]

[fionna_time]

Sure! It's good to help other people, right?

[fuzei]

I believe it is so. [ She closes her eyes and crosses her arms, nodding determinedly. ]
